we have breaking news in the alabama hostage rescue tonight. we are waiting for a news conference and late new details now from mid lachbd city as we wait for authorities to step innen frots of the captain rahs. i want to bring you up to date on what went down today. the boy in question, 5-year-old ethan is safe tonight. we just got this photo to the left of him entering the hospital safe and sound, his armed captor an alleged killer is dead. jimmy lee dykes grabbed the boy from a school bus six days ago. after holding the boy in a bunker for nearly a week now, talking with authorities through a pvc pipe things began breaking down. today authorities went in saving

the boy and killing jimmy lee dykes. we're waiting to hear from state, local and federal officials. president obama has spoken with fbi director mueller to congratulate him on how the operation ended, how things went down. we are joined now by marty savage who is live in midland city. what's the latest on how the little boy is doing? we know he did go to the hospital. >> reporter: yes, we've been getting some updates. he's been taken now to what's a special wing or area that's been set aside inside that hospital. where he is with his family, and at the same time, can be checked out by doctors and they can assess how he's doing both physically and mentally. there are said to be counselors who are available for the family members, and it's expected he will remain in the hospital at least overnight, and he is under very heavy security protection.

that's what we know about his condition now. his uncle was also speaking at a candlelight vigil. they've had a number of these candlelight vigils since this ordeal began. it's the first time any family member has shown up. they were always concerned they couldn't speak because they're -- well, the young boy was still being held hostage. the young boy has said this, ethan was laughing, smiling and coloring at the hospital. and emotionally and mentally he has a lot of healing to do, but he went on to say that he looks great. so there you have it, directly coming from a family member, the uncle of ethan saying he's doing very well. and quite remarkable considering the horrible ordeal he's been through. as you point out, we're not waiting to hear. sort of the break down, we got the initial read on how this happened. 3:00, 3:12 local time, when authorities moved in. there was an explosion, gunfire. there had been a breakdown in the negotiating process they had

been having with mr. dykes. and as a result of that they were concerned about this mental state. then he was seen with a gun. you're worried about that when you're dealing with a young hostage. apparently the decision was made to move. they did. and an explosion was heard. dykes was killed and the young boy was resting. that's where it stood. we've never had a breakdown of events, and that's what we hope to hear coming up in a few minutes. we know the authorities are making their way right behind me here. we anticipate, susan that this should be getting underway. it will be the dale county sheriff as well as federal authorities. the sheriff, by the way has not left here since this began nearly a week ago. >> almost a week ago, 5-year-old ethan was kidnapped and a community was terrorizes. little did we know at that time, mr. charles poland, a man who committed the ultimate sacrifice to protect his beloved children would bring a community together

and test their strength. to his family, we would like to express our condolences. also our appreciation to a hero who through his brave actions saved many lives. while facts and evidence are still being collected. i would like to take this opportunity to thank all law enforcement agencies and first responders. for their tireless hours of dedication throughout this incident. i would like to offer a special word of appreciation to our community for its efforts and support and prayers during this ongoing investigation. at this time, we'll take a few questions. you need to speak loudly, please. >> did he have any interaction,

mr. dykes and mr. poland have any interaction that morning, or even before that all happened? >> during the investigation -- you're going to have to understand a lot of this stuff, there still is an ongoing investigation in this process. so some of those questions will probably be answered later. >> was mr. dykes armed when law enforcement went into the bunker? >> yes. >> can tell us about the procedures that you guys undertook to go in and remove the child? >> at this time we don't want to -- everything's being looked at and being reviewed. it's all still part of the investigation. and we can't answer a lot of questions like that. >> did the mother have contact with the child? >> yes, ma'am, the mother is in contact with her child. >> during the time he was underground? >> she's in contact with the child and the child's doing good. >> were you able to get anything on what mr. dykes wanted to tell --

>> right now we're still gathering facts in the investigation, we're going to keep that stuff. there's still an ongoing investigation. we can only answer certain questions. >> can you talk about the circumstances under which mr. dykes was killed? >> all that is still part of an ongoing investigation. we can't really -- >> was the boy threatened at all when you entered? >> yes, we had reason to believe when we went in to save the child. >> how did you know that he had a weapon? >> early on in the investigation, if you remember, he assaulted a shot at mr. poland when he kidnapped ethan originally. >> did the boy witness what happened to --

>> we had a whole busload of children who witnessed what happened? >> no, in the bunker today? >> right now we're still gathering facts, we still have a scene to process. it's still an ongoing criminal investigation. a lot of things i can't release at this time. >> sheriff, what is the interior look like -- >> i can't hear you? >> what does the interior of the bunker look like? >> like i said, right now, until we get everything done with our investigation, we're not going to release any of that information. >> in the earlier press conference, you said he was seen holding a gun today, can you describe how you guys were able to see him? >> using tactics and things of that nature, we can't release a lot of that information. you don't have to bear with us on stuff like that, okay? >> okay, i'm sorry. >> is it correct to say that ethan over a period of less than a week has seen two men killed in front of him?

>> let me explain something to you about this little boy. he's a very special child. he's been through a lot. he's endured a lot. by the grace of god he's okay. and that was the mission of every man and woman on this compound. every law enforcement officer. every first responder. all of the community who prayed to bring him home safely. that's a lot. >> sheriff, your thoughts -- >> can you describe the state of the bunker when he was brought out of the bunker? >> he's receiving medical treatment and everything's okay. >> sheriff your thoughts when you realized ethan was safe, was rescued? >> you know, i'm a father. a lot of these men and women have sacrificed tireless hours, they're parents as well.

you know, it's -- it's a relief for us to be able to reunite a mother with her child. >> you mentioned negotiations -- can you talk to us about mr. dykes demeanor up until today and how that changed? >> you want to ask that? >> could you repeat the question, please? >> do you know what mr. zykes was like prior to the day the negotiations deteriorated. >> i can't go into those details, but i can tell you over the past 24 hours, our communications with the subject had deteriorated. we were certainly concerned for the safety of the child. i can tell you that i have been to the hospital. very visited with ethan. he's doing fine.

he's laughing, joking, playing, eating. things that you would expect a normal 5 to 6-year-old young man to do. he's very brave, very lucky. and the success story is that he's out safe and doing great. >> can you tell us if there was plumbing? how were they eating? >> i can't go into any of those details. i know you have a lot of questions to ask. bear with us. we have a big crime scene behind us to process. that's going to take some time. >> how dangerous is it back there right now? >> we have the crime scene secured. we are going to do a complete and thorough investigation. that may take a number of days. but we're going to do it the correct way.

>> the folks want to get back home. will they be able to get back -- it could be a while? >> it could be a while, yes. >> what was the purpose of the structure that was held behind this building? >> we can't talk about specific sources or techniques, things of that nature. unfortunately, we will have to deal with another one of these situations somewhere some day. and we want it to be just as successful as this one was today. >> can you confirm? we all heard a loud blast earlier today. without going into too much detail, can you confirm it was some sort of device that you guys activated as opposed to something mr. dykes activated. was it a diversionary device used in the process today? >> i can't talk about sources, techniques or methods we used. however, i will tell you that the success story is ethan is out safe with his mother right now.

>> can you tell us about the amount of supplies that mr. dykes had in the bunk summer. >> i can't comment on that. what i can tell you is that there will be a thorough investigation of the crime scene. and the important thing is that we do it right. we have an independent review team coming in from washington, d.c., who will do a thorough independent and complete investigation of the entire operation. >> have you determined, did mr. dykes have the bunker rigged for explosives? >> i can't comment on that. >> can you talk about the methodology of communication with mr. dykes? >> we were speaking with the subject, i can tell you that. other than that, i can't go into detail, sorry. >> sheriff, can i ask you, did you have any prior contact with

this fellow before this incident? did he have any kind of a record with your department? >> we arrested him on charges december 22nd. and that -- to my knowledge, that's the only contact my office has had with him. >> who did that involve? >> at this time i'm not at liberty to say that. >> how were you getting toys and supplies down into the bunker? >> we had arranged to try to get him some of those toys and things of that nature. >> would you guys say that negotiations started to break down today, can you go into any detail? >> why characterize that -- you seem like you guys have had a pretty civil relationship up until -- >> it just -- it just got really

tough to negotiate with him and communicate with him. i appreciate all your questions and everything, but we really still have a lot of work to do here. your patience has been wonderful. everything you've done for us, and the way you've treated us, we appreciate from the bottom of my heart, because ultimately every one of you were in this with us. it's all about bringing ethan home safely. and i appreciate the patience of the press. and the willingness to work with us through this tragic time we're in. and at this time, we've got a lot of work to do, like i said. thank you all. have a good night. >> there was a -- clearly a pretty exhausted sheriff who was just summarizing his appreciation, not a lot of new information coming out of that, other than authorities saying they have a major crime scene to deal with. that would be the area around

the bunker, demolition experts and that their investigation will continue. the best news they say, ethan is well. you heard them say he is happy and laughing and coloring in the hospital. so that is the best result anybody can hope for. and then the sheriff himself saying, that is exactly what the authorities have been working and praying for. ethan is safe. the gunman was dead. but at least in this community it's all been brought to an end, even if there are still many questions to be answered. >> yeah, he's safe tonight with his mom and celebrating a birthday this wednesday. we're so happy it ended the way it did. martin savidge, thanks so much. we have a lot more to cover tonight. abdomener son will be right back after this.

>> welcome back. two days before his sixth birthday, the ordeal is over for a boy named ethan who was kidnapped, held in a bunker in alabama for near a week now. law enforcement officials said he seemed to be okay when he was freed. he was taken to a hospital where he would be reunited with his mom and his grandmother. even if he's fine physically, there are sure to be psychological issues ethan and his family will have to deal with, going through something like this at such a young age. joining me now is katie beers. you remember as a child she was captured by a family friend, a neighbor. she details her harrowing details of the event "buried memories." you went through your own unimaginable ordeal. we have pictures from when you were kidnapped. what is going through your mind tonight as you see this coverage

of the situation in alabama and what this little boy must have been through? >> i am ecstatic that ethan has been retrieved safe and sound, it seems, from the reports i've heard. as for my ordeal, i just keep thinking about the effects of it being deprived sunlight, nutritious food and human contact. and how much i wanted to have a nutritious meal, see my family, have contact other than john esposito. >> that was the man who took you. i mean, you were abused over the course of those days. and i know basically fed kind of junk food the entire time. to this day, what lingering effects does that experience have? >> to this day, the effects that i have are some anxiety.

the major issue that i have is control issues with my kids and finances. i don't like my kids being out of my sight for more than two seconds. and i think that that might get worse as they get older. and i just have to be in control of situations because for the first ten years of my life, i had no control over anything. >> and, katie, how do you -- as a child, how do you get through something like this, day after day, night after night underground? >> underground, it -- it was definitely difficult. my only human contact was my captor. the only food that i had was junk food. the only light that i had was the light of a television. it was basically pure adrenaline that kept me going.

and the thought of knowing that the cops were still looking for me and that, hopefully one day soon i would be back with my family. >> we don't know what kind of access this little boy had or understanding he had of what was going on or access to information about what was happening outside of this bunker. you were actually able to watch television. did you know that people were looking for you? >> i did know that the cops were looking for me. i could see the news footage every day and i typically, at least, watched one news broadcast a day. but a lot of time i had news channel 12 on, which repeated the same story over and over again. >> and the man who took you, what sort of conversations would you have with him? it must have been just so terrifying to be there with him. >> the conversations that i had

with john were trying to talk about my future, trying to talk about what i was going to do when i was older for school, for work, for family, kids, things like that. it was very difficult, having these conversations with john, my captor, because he would always tell me i wouldn't have to go to school. he would teach me. i wouldn't have to work. he had enough money for us. when it was time for me to get married and have kids, he would do that with me. so he was thinking long term that he was going to keep me until i was apparently very old. >> katie, please stay here. i want to bring in also dr. louis krouse from rush university medical center. the kind of trauma katie endured is incomprehensible for anybody who hasn't been through it. we don't know what happened to 5-year-old ethan in that bunker, what kind of condition he's in. generally speaking, though, what

you know of 5-year-olds and aparentally he has aspergers, what are he and his family looking at in terms of recovery? >> it will be hugely variable. think about the whole process. this poor child started with the trauma of seeing this bus driver shot and killed. then being kidnapped, pulled away from his regular routine. a typical 5-year-old child would find this frightening. a child with aspergers, which is a form of autism, where kids often have a ridge ids quality of how they expect to do things, having difficulties with unfamiliar environments, unfamiliar people, and put exactly into that type of placement, where they have a routine level of anxiety where things don't go the way they want and put into a situation like he has, you know, it's very hard to tell how he's going to do. on the one hand, he might get right back to his routine and do absolutely fine.

but on the other hand, you know, the anxieties, the trauma, what we call an acute stress disorder even post traumatic stress symptoms, as we just described, can occur. what's really important is, first, make sure he's safe, make sure he's healthy, make sure had he he has nutrition. whatever medications were given to limb or not given to him. simply to make sure he's healthy initially and stable. and then to get him back to his normal routine, get him back home, get him with his family. and, most importantly, to make sure that he's looked at, as much as love and care is going to be important, we have to make sure that we get him back to his normal routines and that if the anxiety levels are overwhelming, to treat those, whether therapeutically, in regards to medications. but regardless, to get him back to school, get him back to his normal routine. >> katie, when you finally were free, when you finally got out,

how did you readapt? how did you -- dr. krouse talked about getting back on to a schedule. how long was it before you were able to do something like that? >> one thing to understand, my childhood was not that of a normal 9-year-old, 10-year-old. i really had no schedule. so, getting me on to a schedule, i think, was a little difficult for my parents. they did a phenomenal job of it, though. the thing that helped me the most was being with a loving family who had a routine. we did dinner the same time every night. bedtime, homework. things like that. and they allowed me to maintain my privacy. they didn't speak to any media outlets. they never have. this is the first that i've done it since writing "buried memories." this is the first i've spoken to the media. and i think that the privacy really helped me to recover,

along with the therapy. i wasn't forced to talk about things until i was ready. >> well, it's -- it's -- again, it's just such an extraordinary story. katie, i appreciate you being with us and talking about this. i know it's difficult. and i find your book really fascinating. thank you very much for that. dr. krouse as well. >> pleasure. >> so much we still have to learn about what happened to this little boy and exactly what happened in that bunker. we have a lot more coming up. senator bob menendez answers tough questions about improper travel and party with his prostitutes. he's only talking with dana bash. >> that you were with prostitutes. >> the smears that right-wing blogs have been pushing since the election and that is totally unsubstantiated. also ahead tonight, what caused that super bowl blackout? details on that ahead.

a 360 exclusive tonight, robert menendez finally speaking out about allegations of improper travel, parties with prostitutes and his relationship with a generous donor. allegations were raised just before election day. senator menendez, new chair of senate foreign relations committee has been under growing pressure to address them. he is speaking out exclusively to our correspondent dana bash.

you asked the senator some tough questions. what did he tell you? >> reporter: he admitted and apologized to making some travel and not paying that back. a lot of money on that, but he vehemently denied anything that was untoward or tawdry, particularly with prostitutes. can you explain why it took so long to pay back flights you took with your friend? >> i was in a big travel schedule in 2010 as the chair, plus my own campaign, getting ready for a re-election cycle. in the process of all of that, it unfortunately fell through the cracks, that our processes didn't catch moving forward and making sure we paid. when it came to my attention that payment had not taken place, i personally paid for them in order to meet my obligation. >> reporter: because that's a lot of money. as chair of the dscc you did so much traveling. you know the rules. that's a pretty big chunk of money not to pay back.

>> well, it's certainly, you know, the responsibility of myself, when it came to my attention to do so. if it came to my attention -- had it come to my attention before, i would have, in fact, done it before. when it came to my attention, i did what was right and i paid for it myself. >> reporter: you, of course, understand the perception that when you say when it came to your attention that you didn't pay for it until you got caught. >> well, that's not the case. the bottom line is, when it came to my attention, i paid for t you know, there are a series of flights that were alleged. several of them were, you know, shown not to be the case. but after the election, when i got to look at the allegations and i did my own self inspection, i ultimately came forward. as a matter of fact, one of those flights i self-reported. it wasn't even anybody raising it. >> reporter: one last question.

can you just answer the allegation that has been out there that you -- >> the smears? >> reporter: that you were with prostitutes, sir? >> the smears that right-wing blogs have been pushing since the election and that is totally unsubstantiated. it's amazing to me that anonymous, nameless, faceless individuals on a website can drive that type of story into the mainstream. but that's what they've done successfully. now nobody can find them. no one ever met them. no one ever talked to them. but that's where we're at. so the bottom line is that all of those smears are absolutely false. and, you know, that's the bottom line. >> reporter: just one last question on contracts, sir, did you do anything -- did you do anything to help your friend in an untoward way, use your influence to help him? >> i have always advocated for issues and i have advocated for policies and that's what i have done across the board. >> dana, i don't quite get, why is he taking private jets down to the dominican republic? there are tons of flights down to the dominican republic from new york.

he's from new jersey. jetblue, i think, even flies down there pretty cheaply. why is he taking private jets? >> reporter: i didn't have a chance to ask him a lot of questions. certainly that is a good one. it is possible that the senate ethics committee will be investigating. perhaps that's something that they will ask. look, it is known now that he went down to the dominican republic with his wealthy friend, donor, and went on his plane. that may be the answer to why he did take private travel. after weeks of not talking to the press, putting out statements through his staff, avoiding reporters who cover the senate in the hallway, even though we often have access to all the senators, he made a point through his staff, contacted me and a couple of reporters from new jersey saying he does want to talk. that's why he not only came out and talked to some reporters first right off the senate floor but then i asked him if he would come down to where our camera was, which was not close and he agreed to do so.

this is something i talked to his staff earlier. he walked down to the first floor all the way to our camera and made a point of talking to us on camera because, according to his staff, he is angry about the fact that all of these -- >> why now? >> reporter: that's exactly what i asked, why now after all this? the answer is he is fed up with these, as you heard him say, unsubstantiated allegations about prostitutes and other things. he wanted to admit that he made a mistake with the travel but the rest he wanted to vehemently deny, which is what he did. chris kyle one of the best snipers the u.s. military has ever seen went to a shooting range with two other men this weekend. only one of the three is alive, and he's charged with double murder. also later, the pakistani teenager shot in the head by a taliban gunman. she's talking about her future. it's a new day.

the man charged with

murdering a well known navy s.e.a.l. over the weekend is being held on a $3 million bond. texas authorities say he was tasers and restrained after he became aggressive with guards. one of the two men he's accused of gunning down is chris kyle. he served five combat tours in iraq. remarkably, he made one of those shots from 2100 yards away, here's how he described the moment. maybe the way i jerked the trigger to the right adjusted for the wind. maybe gravity shifted and put that bullet right where it had to be. he was so feared by iraqi insurgents they put a bounty on his head. he survived the war, left the navy with a chestful of medals. back home he was helping veterans struggling with ptsd. officials think that's what he was doing at that gun range where he died. ed lavendera reports. >> reporter: chris felt

passionate about the issue of ptsd. >> he was very concerned that service members felt discarded when they returned home. and he wanted to facilitate, help facilitate their transition from war to productive civilian life. >> reporter: the family of a former young marine named eddie ray routh may have reached out to kyle, asking him to help routh overcome his personal struggles and chris kyle and chad littlefield were there to lend a hand. it was just after 3:00 in the afternoon on saturday that chris kyle, chad littlefield, along with eddie ray routh, arrived here at the rough creek lodge, sprawling 11,000-acre resort. it wasn't until about 5:00 that a hunting guide on the grounds discovered kyle and littlefield's bodies. by then, eddie ray routh was long gone.

they were found in a remote part of the resort, far from any witnesses. near the bodies, several different types of weapons were found. >> right now it appears that he used a semi automatic handgun. >> reporter: police say after the shootings, routh jumped into chris kyle's truck and drove almost 70 miles to the town of midlothian to the home of his sister. investigators say routh confessed to her he had just killed both men. according to an arrest warrant, routh told his sister that he had just traded his soul for a new truck. after he left here, she called authorities and told them all about it. when eddie ray routh left his sister's house, authorities say he kept driving east and ended up at his house in the town of lancaster, another 24 miles away. police arrived in the neighborhood, found chris kyle's truck here in the driveway. >> reporter: it didn't end there. somehow he was able to drive away from his house and neighborhood in chris kyle's truck.

he led authorities on a short chase for several miles. it took tire spikes dropped on the roadway by police to finally end the hunt for eddie ray routh. >> this is such a tragedy. you've got details about an incident with routh and his parents a few months ago. what happened? >> reporter: we've got our hands on a police report back in september. from his hometown in lancaster, texas. his parents called police and it was described as a major disturbance. according to that police report, his parents said that eddie ray routh was threatening to kill them, because his father told his son he was going to sell his gun. when police arrived, they found him walking through his neighborhood without shirt and shoes on and he was telling them that he was, quote, hurting and that his parents didn't understand what he was going through and that he was a marine veteran suffering from ptsd. that police report also says that routh was taken to a mental hospital and evaluated. it's not clear what, if anything, was done after that.

>> and what's going on with him in jail right now? i heard these reports he has been hard to control. >> reporter: apparently he has been. sheriff's officials here are telling us that they tried to -- gave him his meal. he didn't want to give back the utensils and plate that the meal was served on. he had to be tased to get control. he has been shackled. we heard from his attorney, who met briefly with him who said during that meeting he was shackled and restrained. the sheriff says until he stops becoming aggressive that he will have to remain that way as well. anderson? >> thank you. former navy s.e.a.l. and author of the book "the red circle" trained chris kyle. they became close friends. he joins me now. thank you so much for being with us. i'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. you say that chris was a book you definitely didn't want to judge by its cover. what do you mean? >> i think that goes to most guys in the s.e.a.l. teams.

you look at these individuals sometimes and you just don't realize, you know, what they've been through and what they're capable of and just the amazing things that they've accomplished. you know, chris was that guy. he was a larger-than-life texan and one of the best students that we've had come through the program. and an american hero. >> when you first started training chris to be a sniper, did you know he was as talented as he was? >> well, i think it was one thing chris would want to acknowledge, the fact that we have one of the best sniper programs in the world. and there is -- to get to graduate that program, these guys are absolutely amazing marksmen. and there's plenty of guys out there like chris, but chris often times didn't like to take the credit. he would shy away from it. but he just ended up being one of the most accomplished snipers

on the battlefield. >> and, i mean, the horrible irony of this is that it was important for him to help other vets and vets suffering from ptsd and this guy who is now accused of shooting chris and his friend told police he is suffering from ptsd. it's an issue that is close, obviously, to a lot of americans, to veteran's hearts as it was to chris. what's the value? explain the value of having former service members like yourself, like chris helping vets transition out of a war zone. >> the transition is something that chris and i talked about. it's tough when your at war for a decade and you try and transition back to civilian life and oftentimes theses guys are getting maybe a one-week transition course. and the thing about having veterans help veterans is that they understand -- these guys can relate to each other. i had a lot of people ask me, why a shooting range?

well, you know, it's a familiar environment. and they're used to it. they're military guys. it's like going to the basketball court and shooting hoops and talking about things and working things out. so, you know, it was something very close to chris' heart. this is a guy that was usually successful outside of the s.e.a.l. community, could have done anything. yet he chose to devote time away from his business and family to help these veterans that were suffering and kind of slipping through the cracks of the department of veteran affairs. >> well, it is just such a loss. and i appreciate, brandon, you being on tonight to talk about your friend. thank you very much. again, i'm so sorry for your >> thank you. >> brandon webb. we'll have more coming up. remarkable recovery for the teenage girl shot in the head by the taliban in pakistan.

>> imagine being in that control room. that power outage delayed the game for more than half an hour. the question today is what happened. brian todd joins me live from new orleans. what do we know so far? >> reporter: new questions are being raised tonight about whether managers at the superdome may have had any inkling that this could happen, any warning that this could happen. anecdotal reports we're getting that rehearsals the pop star beyonce was holding throughout the week where there may have been problems. one of the questions raised by boomer esiason, a cbs analyst. he was doing some radio analysis during the game in the superdome when the lights went out. today on his radio show called "boomer & carton" he raised the issue, saying what it was like when the power went out but then he talked about what he heard during beyonce's rehearsals during the week. take a listen. >> the interesting thing is that five or six minutes prior to the breaker going, our radio booth was up on the seventh floor, almost at the ceiling of the

dome. >> right. >> and kevin says to me, man, do you hear that buzzing? i took my headset off and there was like this electrical buzz sound coming from the ceiling and this was after half time, after beyonce -- by the way, beyonce blew the electric in the superdome twice i'm told. >> oh, is that right? >> during her rehearsals. >> now we tried to reach representatives for beyonce for comment on those remarks and just anything that they might be able to say about the power outage. we have not heard back from them. we also asked the managers from the superdome, we have not heard back from them on boomer esiason's comments as to whether those reports are accurate or not. what smg has said about beyonce's actual performance is that it had nothing to do with the power outage. the actual live performance at half time, they said, had nothing to do with it because she and her production team were on kind of a separate self generated power source for that,

not on the superdome's grid. they're saying that her actual performance had nothing to do with it. what they're saying now, anderson, is that a machine that monitors power input to the superdome detected an abnormality at some point. when it did that, the machine kind of triggered power breakers that triggered the power to go off. they said they basically tripped the power switch. what smg is saying is that those power breakers were operated by entergy that supplies the superdome. entergy only says it's investigating and any statements while they're investigating is going on are pure speculation. on one hand you have smg saying the power breakers that tripped this were operated by entergy and entergy is not commenting on that at this point, anderson. >> okay. i guess a lot more questions to be answered. brian todd, appreciate the reporting. thank you very much. susan hendricks has more news in another "360 bulletin." susan? >> malala yousafzai, who was

[ designer ] enough of just covering up my moderate to severe plaque psoriasis. i decided enough is enough. ♪ [ spa lady ] i started enbrel. it's clinically proven to provide clearer skin. [ rv guy ] enbrel may not work for everyone -- and may not clear you completely, but for many, it gets skin clearer fast, within 2 months, and keeps it clearer through 6 months. [ male announcer ] enbrel may lower your ability to fight infections. serious, sometimes fatal events, including infections, tuberculosis, lymphoma, other cancers, nervous system and blood disorders, and allergic reactions have occurred. before starting enbrel, your doctor should test you for tuberculosis and discuss whether you've been to a region where certain fungal infections are common. you should not start enbrel if you have an infection like the flu. tell your doctor if you're prone to infections, have cuts or sores, have had hepatitis b,

have been treated for heart failure, or if you have symptoms such as persistent fever, bruising, bleeding, or paleness. if you've had enough, ask your dermatologist about enbrel. britta olsen is my patient. i spend long hours with her checking her heart rate, administering her medication, and just making her comfortable. one night britta told me about a tradition in denmark, "when a person dies," she said, "someone must open the window so the soul can depart." i smiled and squeezed her hand.
